Music Show & Tell: Ami Yamasaki - Energy

Tickets and Information

The performance Energy by Ami Yamasaki is the voice, sounds and visual arts that she made with her friends in Tokyo, inspired by the conversations with her friends about the earthquake and their ordinary life.

Tokyo didn't experience catastrophic damage like Fukushima or the Pacific Ocean coast part of the Tohoku area. However, it is afflicted by fear of the health hazard caused by the release of nuclear radiation. For the people who lived in Tokyo, their existence and way of life were shaken by the overwhelming energy of the nuclear power plant and its radiation. Then, in individual daily life, they face the problem to which people had turned their eyes away long: "what is the quality of life? How can the individuals make a solidarity?" Ami found the title Energy from their conversations.
